Alaska Mike will be playing in St Albans
He will be hosted by George Papavgeris.
if you are a singer looking for material they may be a source for you.
Burke :hope you get on O K with Jez Lowe I have often looked to him for material to perform, sometimes his humour is very subtle.
The Dubliners and Fairport have also covered him.
Goik : Artisan may have gone passed their sellby date,their songs mainly by Brian are rather philosophical and after a while fairly predictable, though to be fair they can vary.
they need a break, I'm sure and hope they will return sometime as all top bands do.
They do an excellent version Of Mary E C and IMHO they convey the emotion of the song far better than the author.
Dan Mckinnon sings it as a closer, he will be at Ampthill, Beds UK tonight at the White Hart Hotel
